LyX-1.3.5 - Windows native version - Problem with Latex2html

How do define the all the words as a surname and not as first names or
initials (which is what happens now)?
The bibtex documentation (btxdoc.dvi) suggests (in it's last section)

In tkbibtex just put the part betwenn the {} in the author field.

Stefano,
The referenced work _may_ need to start at column 1, as does the citation.
AFAIK, all whitespace is equivalent in bibtex (see example file btxdoc.bib
that comes with bibtex (/usr/share/doc/texmf/bibtex/base/btxdoc.bib on my
Debian system)).
I cannot find an error, but studying the bibtex documentation in
btxdoc.dvi might give some advice.
If you are citing only a single chapter from a collection a direct
reference (rather than a cross reference) is simpler and it does work. At
least it does for me.
Copying the fields instead of a crossref is of course a quick and dirty
workaround.

RE : LyX-1.3.5 - Windows native version - Problem with Latex2html
Yes, absolutely ... As MiKTeX proposes the converter 'text4ht', I thought that it was the same for 'LaTeX2HTML' ... unfortunately it is not the case, as you said ! So, I have followed the indications at this address : http://www.mayer.dial.pipex.com/l2h.htm and now all is OK ... -Message d'origine- De : news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] De la part de Milos Komarcevic Envoyé : jeudi 31 mars 2005 16:33 À : lyx-users@lists.lyx.org Objet : Re: LyX-1.3.5 - Windows native version - Problem with Latex2html EXT / TEAMLOG MELLERIN Pierrick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > Hello, > > I have a problem when I want to export my .lyx document in .html, with > the latex2html package (installed with MiKTeX).

Insertion of xfig figures
Hello, I just found out this by mistyping a suffix (.fig instead of .eps) for the file name in the figure inset menu. The figure is, say figures/foo.fig foo.fig embeds epses (in fact, exported from latex), say bar.eps as relative file names Lyx fails to find bar.eps when insetting directly figures/foo.fig It should cd to the dir in which the fig files are located before exporting, I guess. I always export to eps myself, but it's just to make sure. HTH -- Jean-Pierre

Since you've just compiled it, maybe you could check ;-) It may be tht it only works for XFig files inserted using the External inset rather than the Graphics inset, I'm not sure. -- Angus
linebreaks inside table cells
hello again,
I'd like to create a table with linebreaks inside the cells.
Inserting linebreaks doesn't help, neither does C-enter...
any ideas?
